Pokémon Help

Call me crazy, but I'm actually looking into using a Pokemon like Lopunny in my ingame team. I've never really used this Pokemon before, I overlooked Bunearies as cuddly dolls that served no purpose whatsoever. Let's not forget the precious time wasted while attempting to evolve one! Is that true, or is there more to Lopunny? If so, please give me suggestions on how I could use her, thanks.

Bunary/Lopunny isn't to bad a choice for ingame. (Says the person who did a ingame run with a Unown as a permanent party member, which is almost as bad as using Magikarp and not evolving it.)

Having used one or two: There is a "issue" with using one, it's ability Klutz prevents most held items from being used. They won't eat a Berry if they have one. Quick Claw and King's Rock won't boost speed or induce flinching. Several items that don't do anything to affect a battle can still be used. The other Abilities Run Away/Cute charm are very situational.

It's Ok in power, it's clearly not a powerhouse like Garchomp is. It's pretty quick, and being the 40th fastest Pokémon in 4th Gen, according to base stats.

One more thing. Return is probably one of the most powerful moves Lopunny naturally learns, as it learns at Lv 13. Buneary Learns Frustration at Lv13. Return rewards you for having happy Pokémon, while Fustration does the opposite. It's well worth paying a Heart scale for Return if you want to use it.

Moved to the Questions thread.

Thanks, and about the Klutz Ability...

It isn't always bad. Maybe you can try holding a Toxic Orb, and giving it to the opponent through Switcheroo, and it can come in handy when you use a stealing move, like Covet, and steal the opponent's item. If it has a negative or useless effect, Klutz will disable it.

I never really took Return into consideration, it would be a great idea to teach a Lopunny, it takes long for a Buneary to evolve, and imagine how powerful the move would be then! Thanks again.

Possible Arceus through void?

I notice that the spear pillar map CHANGES when you use the azure flute to have the stairs. Maybe someone can look for a hall of origin spear pillar map through the Jubilife Void? You might want to, for safety poke-transfer your pokemon B/W or B2/W2 or trade over to another game
